I'm Gone
Ben Adams Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Blue Skies will fail
The dark clouds will prevail
Ever changing like the wind
Someday
Your brown eyes won't move me
Your sad smile won't fool me
Chorus
So maybe I'm strong
Maybe I'm helpless
Maybe I'm wrong to suggest that I'm weak at my best
But I feel like I need to move on
So baby I'm gone
So baby I'm gone
So we'll never??? Sit by the window
Watch fate fall into rivers flowing in my eyes
So goodbye
Farewell nice knowing you
Don't know where I'm going to
But I know what I'm leaving behind
Chorus
Oh oh oh ohhh yeah
Chorus
So baby I'm gone fade until end

Observe the positive aspects of life reflected in my eyes

I bid farewell
Farewell nice knowing you
It was nice knowing you, but this is goodbye
Don't know where I'm going to
